Madder Than A Full Moon Dog (2013) DVD review
UK Distribution – Wienerworld – OUT NOW
The Full Moon Dog Festival started in 2011 in honour of the Asomvel frontman Jay Jay Winter who died in a motor accident in 2010.
Here we have a DVD from the 2012 festival that features live performances and backstage interviews with bands on the bill and people who knew Jay Jay. From the Cockpit in Leeds here we have Madder Than A Full Moon Dog.
With live performances and interviews from Orange Goblin, Asomvel, Stuka Squadron, Dark Forest, Triaxis and more.
This is a great DVD that does what really hasn’t been done before , it shows a small UK metal festival with UK bands and explores the idiosyncrasies of UK metal fans.
The camera work is top notch and as well as some great live performances there are some great montages and a good mix of bands that all fall under the metal banner. The sound is OK but this understandable as it was filmed in a live venue and live music is a very fickle mistress at the best of times.
All in this is a great look into UK metal from some smaller bands to the mighty Orange Goblin , and of course it is a fitting tribute to an obviously much loved and much missed friend and band-mate .
Well worth picking up and something quite unique 6/10 .
